After a digital registration and personal identification process via the application's QR code, individuals film themselves performing the mouthwash with a saline solution provided in the kit, for 1 minute. Identification is done using a sophisticated algorithm that documents who is using the test. Sample collection is requested through the app, which integrates the company's partner carrier. After collection, the sample is sent to the laboratory for PCR testing, and as soon as it arrives at the laboratory the result is made available within 24 hours by the App. Watch ‘ How to test with COVID-19 self test kit’
